Darn ... I'm really sorry to hear that. In the future, we may want to consider narrowing down to 3-5 options, clearing them first, and opening it up for wider opinions only on the available names. Just a thought ...

Hi, we just completed a trademark search on "Sleepwalker," and it turns
out that it's already being used for software. So, we're going to have
to go with a different name. I've asked for searches on the next
highest vote-getters, "Turbine" and "Sandman."
